Disinfection
This programme is for heavily soiled fabrics, especially
those with bleachable stains (e.g. fruit, coffee, tea, red
wine).
The Dis in fection programme can be activated for boil
wash and coloureds, but also for easy care fabrics.
This will increase wash time.
See « Dis in fection» in the chapter «profi Clean pro gram -
mes».
Hint
l The programmes «Express», «Prewash» and «Dis in -
fec tion» exclude each other, this means that only one
of these additional programmes can be selected.
Additional functions
u Selecting additional functions: see chapter «Washing/
Selecting additional functions».
Start time preselect
By pressing the «Pre-set starting time» button one or
more times, the programme start time can be delayed
by up to 100 hours.
This makes it possible to take advantage of cheaper
night-time electricity, for example. The start time and
conse quently also the end time of a programme can be
tailored to your individual lifestyle.
The start time and the anticipated programme end time
are shown on the display.
The preselected time starts when the start button is
pressed.
When the start time is reached, the selected
programme starts automatically. The current
programme duration will be displayed.
Note
l The start time preselect only works if no soaking pro -
gramme has been selected (see also chapter
«Extended basic settings/Soaking programme»).
l In the event of a power cut, the current time is
saved. The duration of the power cut is not taken into
account.
Reducing the temperature
u Pressing the «Washing Temperature» button several
times reduces the wash temperature in 10°C stages
(15°C stages above 80°C).
The new temperature will be displayed. It can also be
changed during the first two minutes of the programme.
The lower temperature is compensated by an
extension of the post-wash time, which achieves the
same result for less energy.
Spin speed
This function is used to select a lower spin speed or a
rinse stop for a more gentle treatment of the laundry,
for example with delicate laundry (see next section).
Without spin speed reduction the laundry will be spun
at normal spin speed. This is always dependent on the
programme chosen.
A single press on this button causes the pre-selected
spin speed to be shown in the digital display.
Repeatedly pressing the button causes the spin speed
to be reduced. The slowest possible spin speed is 200
rpm.
The spin speed can also be changed while a
programme is operating but not during the spin cycle
however.
Money-saving tip
If the laundry is to be dried in a tumble dryer, select a
high spin speed since well-drained laundry needs much
less energy and time for machine drying.
Rinsing stop
The «Rinsing stop» function is used to avoid creasing
of sensitive fabrics. The laundry is held in the last rinse
water. Select rinsing stop by reducing the spin speed
until you see «Rinsing stop» on the display.
You can end the programme by draining the laundry
without spinning or by spinning (see chapter «Washing/
Ending the programme with rinsing stop»)
.
Quick wash
The programme can be shortened or aborted by pres-
sing the Quick wash button.

This button can also be used to select special program-
mes.
